Our experience in supporting complex programmes positions us uniquely to assist Canada and the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) in successful delivery of its acquisition and support mandates.”

Under ELMS, BMT and their Tier 1 subcontractor Fleetway Inc., will provide a highly diverse range of services including the review of deliverables DND receives from capital acquisition projects, such as the Canadian Surface Combatant, Canada’s largest project. The work also entails engineering expertise, technical investigations and program support.
 
BMT has successfully delivered on more than 250 discrete taskings under the previous ELMS contract, including a broad range of engineering and design studies. As a proven ‘Tier Zero’ contractor to Major Crown Projects and commercial industry, BMT provides effective, trusted and independent support to government and industry for complex engineering projects.
